A Beautiful Family Session at the ICONA Hotel in Wildwood, NJ

This summer, I had the pleasure of photographing a gorgeous family session at the ICONA Hotel in Wildwood, NJ. The family—mom, dad, their two teenage daughters, and their son—wanted updated portraits during their beach vacation, and the ICONA provided the perfect backdrop. With its chic coastal vibe, white sands, and stunning ocean views, it’s one of my favorite spots for family photography at the Jersey Shore.

What I loved most about this session was the mix of personalities. Teens can sometimes shy away from photos, but these two sisters had such a natural bond with their younger brother that the laughter came easily. Between playful sibling moments and sweet, timeless shots with mom and dad, we created a collection that truly showed their connection as a family.

The kids loved climbing onto the lifeguard stand at the ICONA Hotel in Wildwood, NJ a fun moment from their summer family photo session.

The ICONA’s beachfront gave us those dreamy golden-hour photos everyone loves. The soft evening light over the Wildwood shoreline was perfect for both candid shots and classic family portraits. Whether standing together by the waves or walking hand in hand along the shore, this family radiated warmth and love.

Family sessions like this remind me why I adore being a New Jersey family photographer. It’s not just about the photos—it’s about preserving a moment in time when kids are growing, teens are on the edge of adulthood, and parents are soaking in every memory.
